The Bolsover constituency currently has no further or higher educational facilities - meaning children born in Bolsover are subject to a postcode lottery in terms of their life chances.
Working with our local schools to ensure every child in our area can reach their full potential. That means providing modern, fit-for-purpose facilities such as the £8.5 million for upgrades to Bramley Vale Primary School. And campaigning to restore post-16 education to Bolsover.
Our education services do a phenomenal job with our constituency but with no provision for post-16 and one of the highest computer illiteracy rates in the region more must be done to tackle both of these issues.

Earlier this month, following my letter and video to Bolsover town's residents about the Labour District Council's betrayal of the town's £15 million investment, the District Councillor for Bolsover North and Shuttlewood, Cllr Ashley Taylor, wrote an open letter to me outlining his views.
